2021 IWLCA Division III Coaches Poll – March 8, 2021
Middlebury College retained the top ranking in this week’s Division III Coaches Poll, with 24 of 25 first place votes. Franklin & Marshall, Tufts, Washington, and Lee, and Gettysburg round out the top five teams, who all have yet to compete this season. St. Mary’s (1-0) earned a spot in the poll at #25 after knocking off last week’s #25, Shenandoah, 9-8, in overtime.
There are a small number of games scheduled for this week, though many schools still have not published their 2021 competition schedules yet.
